Orange Blueberry Granita with a Hint of Ginger

Isn’t it great when you set out to make one dish and it gets messed up, but you realize that your mess can be called something else? That is what happened to me last night. I intended to make a sorbet, but it never quite became one, the texture was too coarse, and looked very much like granita. I have never made a granita before, so I wasn’t really sure if I can call my creation by the name. An online search brought […]

Yes, it is fun to come up with clever names for a dish, I could’ve called this dish Jackotta, but until I get my own cooking show and make Jackotta […]

Mojito (pronounced moe-hee-toe) is Cuba’s most famous cocktail, and is supposedly one of Earnest Hemingway’s favorite tipples. The name Mojito is rumored to be derived from the word “Mojo” - remember Austin Powers? This refreshingly tasty drink in its purest form is made of five basic ingredients - rum, mint leaves, lime juice, sugar and club soda. You can make umpteen variations of this by adding any fruits of your desire. I will share the tried and tested recipe for a classic Mojito […]
